Tree Day in Aperribai School

TREE DAY 2011

Each year, in Spring, our school students participate in a special

Tree day event designed just for children, “ Schools Tree Day”. It is

a wonderful opportunity for children to make a contribution to our

natural environment and have lots of fun at the same time.

Students help out by planting and caring different trees and shrubs to improve the environment in which they live.

They learn how to plant trees and at the same time their names and

characteristics and how to care them during the year.

Aperribai School- Korrika

Korrika is a non-stop relay race throughout all the Basque Country to support the Basque language, hundreds of thousands of runners and several cultural events and celebrations in the whole Basque country as the race takes place.
Korrika is organized by AEK, an organization which teaches Basque and Basque literacy to adults. The objective of the event is to enhance awareness of Basque and raise funds to carry out this work on a daily basis in AEK study centers.
The first race took place in 1980 from Oñati (Gipuzkoa) to Bilbao
(Bizkaia). Since then, there have been 16 Korrikas held over 24 years.

This year we celebrate the 17th edition of korrika . It is going to
start in Trebiño and it will finish on April 17th in Donostia-San
Sebastian. It will cover a distance of 2,500 km and pass through 400
towns in the Basque Country.
This year's slogan is "Maitatu, ikasi, ari... euskala-kari" (Love,
learn, use Basque, euskalakari!). AEK and Korrika have named the people who love, learn and use the Basque language 

Book day in Aperribai school

Book day  2011. Aperribai school.

International day of the book is a yearly event on 23^rd  April organized by UNESCO to promote reading. The day was first celebrated in 1995. The connection between 23^rd April and books was first made in Spain as a way to honor the famous writer Miguel de Cervantes, the author of “Quijote”, who died on that day . In 1995 Unesco decided that the World Book would be celebrated on this date because this date is also the anniversary of the birth and the death of Shakespeare, Cervantes and Garcilaso de la Vega. So that every April 23^rd children from schools celebrate that day doing many special activities related to the book and reading. This year in our school we are going to have special sessions of reading, where we will read classical tales, legends and mythological stories. Besides, we will make scoreboards for books and it’s also going to come a storytelling, who will tell us many interesting stories.
